Paragraph 2 of 2

NOTICE:  Look at Paragraph 2 and see that I tried to make the YitF and JT to be on separate lines - It Doesn't Work that way.  To do that each line needs to be IN a paragraph so I should have started with 4 paragraphs instead of 2.  No problem - We will go back in several more steps and Edit the article adding two more paragraphs and the Web page will look great.
